2014 Palmer Johnson 42 Yacht Evaluation
Overview of the Palmer Johnson 42
Launched in 2000 by the renowned American boat builder Palmer Johnson, the motor yacht I-Sea exemplifies both classic craftsmanship and cutting-edge design. Engineered by Vripack naval architects, this yacht underwent an extensive refurbishment in 2014 at Navinco Greece, resulting in a vessel that is not only unique but also of outstanding quality. The renovations improved her living areas and open spaces, ensuring she is a prominent choice in the charter market for her size.
Build and Performance
The Palmer Johnson 42 is constructed with an aluminum hull and superstructure, which lend to her lightweight yet resilient frame. Her semi-displacement hull design provides excellent seakeeping abilities and remarkable speed performance. Fueled by twin Detroit Diesel engines, she cruises effortlessly at 12 knots and has a top speed of 18 knots. With a range extending up to 1,800 nautical miles, she is ideally equipped for long-range excursions.
A modest draft of 1.9 meters (6’3″) enables the yacht to traverse shallow waters with great ease, making her perfect for exploring coastal regions and hidden bays. Furthermore, an advanced stabilization system onboard significantly reduces side-to-side movements, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for guests whether at anchor or in motion.
Opulent Accommodations
Accommodating up to 10 charter guests, the Palmer Johnson 42 presents a flexible and opulent configuration across five tastefully appointed cabins. The master suite has a king-sized bed along with en-suite bathroom facilities, offering a secluded haven for the primary guest. Two additional cabins feature twin beds with en-suite bathrooms, while another room contains a double bed and en-suite facilities. A fifth cabin offers a queen-sized bed and a private en-suite bathroom, guaranteeing every guest experiences comfort and privacy.
